Mar 4, 2007 I love the way this beer pours. They really did a great job with the CO2 widget. Nice head and nice color. Palate is little too smooth/creamy for my tastes. Taste has potential but a little on the flat side.

Mar 3, 2007 A nice british beer even though I dislike Manchester so much (mainly cause I am an Arsenal fan) It has a nice aroma and a great pour with a thick creamy head. Flavor is nice and texture is smooth. Worth a try and a popular beer.

Mar 2, 2007 Nice clean drink with a creamy head and a light golden/orange color. Very easy to drink. Good all year round

Mar 2, 2007 Pours a briliant orange cream colour with a milky head that retains all the way to the end. There is close to no carbonation in this one. The bitterness lets you know it’s English. Hints of honey and malt coming through. It’s definitely thin, but coupled with the creamy head, it is very pleasant on the palate. So what if its a little weak and thin, this shit is fun to drink, pour, and look at. Plus because it has almost no carbonation, I can chug this stuff like a champ.

Mar 1, 2007 Can’t agree with the low ratings on this one. Pours a beautiful orange with a Guiness like cascade. Head will last you to the last drop. Aroma is almost coffeeish, almost like a cappuccino. Taste is surely bitter, and firm with hits of fruit and dry malts. Mine was definitely not watery or weak. Granted the can does it some harm. I’d recommend people try it on tap where possible and if applicable re-rate.

Mar 1, 2007 Not bad, but not good either. It’s nice and smooth. Slight sweet taste with just a bit more bitterness to balance. Tasted metallic, but probably from can. Might be nice on tap or bottle.

Feb 27, 2007 An above-average brewski, if not outstanding. The dark brown color is eye-catching, as is the thick head - when first poured, there is a lot of cloudiness owing to the carbonation; the bubbles are tiny so the turbidity lasts for a little while. Even when it clears the head is still rich; it reminds me of the head on a well-poured Guinness except not as thick.
The flavor was not as heavy as I expected, but it is smooth with the kind of hoppy bitterness I expect from a good English ale. It is smooth and pleasant, and a good accompaniment to a meal.
